-------------------------------------
Summary: [C++/Python] Variable step size slicing for arrays
Key: ARROW-2714
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2714
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Florian Jetter
Array slicing should support variable step sizes
The current behavior raises an {{IndexError}}, e.g.
{code}
In [8]: import pyarrow as pa
In [9]: pa.array([1, 2, 3])[::-1]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IndexError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-9-20da5f9ab67a> in <module>()
----> 1 pa.array([1, 2, 3])[::-1]
array.pxi in pyarrow.lib.Array.__getitem__()
array.pxi in pyarrow.lib._normalize_slice()
IndexError: only slices with step 1 supported
{code}
